Student Portfolios

During my time at Greendale Elementary, I got to be a part of the student

portfolio process.
While the pieces put into these portfolios were selected by my cooperating
teacher, I hope to one day use student portfolios in my classroom as a means
of getting students to reflect on their work, self-evaluate their progress,
and set goals for themselves for the next term.
As it was, the portfolios were an excellent means of getting students involved
in the discussion with their parents and teachers in regards to their own
learning and engagement in the classroom.
